Week 4: 3/10/2015 - 9pm PDT 3/17/2015

Here we go again! Time to get those captions ready! What do you think is going on in this image from CERN's archives?

Link to the original CERN image.

CERN scientists and engineers often find themselves in interesting positions. However, we're not sure if this CERN staffer ever expected to be quite where he is now!

Add your humorous caption as a comment to this project log. Make sure you're commenting on this project log, not on the project itself.

As always, if you actually have information about the image or the people in it, let CERN know on the original image discussion page.

Good Luck!

Nobody ever understood Olaf's love for his work, but he had always known from an early age that he was meant to work inside large science tubes.

I don't get it. If the blue smoke exited the firing end at 3462.337 meters per second, the problem should be right here in this 50 meter section. Oh-Oh. Oh, damn. Right. Deceleration factor.  OK, HEY, GUYS?.... WE GOTTA PUT THIS THING BACK! .....GUYS?

Pictured long before his rise to fame as a popular kerbonaut (and later infamy from the failed mutiny of the Kerballer V black-hole mission), Jebediah Kerman can be seen installing the lower hatch of a prototype trash-removal device.  It was this picture, seen by the marketing dept, which led to a product name change of "PPD-10 Hitchhiker Storage Container".

Timmy you're looking a little tired, the crystalline power source of those light sabers needs to be discharged in a very specific way, otherwise you'll die horrifically. Timmy no!!!!!!  Well what are you all looking at? Scrape him out and get the next intern in here.
